    PLEASE, DO NOT buy an engine from this company. I bought an engine from them a few weeks ago. The goal was to save me some money. Turns out that the engine leaks oil. In order to get a replacement, they said I will have to take the engine out and ship it back to them so they can send a replacement engine to me. The problem is that it will cost money to take it out, ship it and have the replacement put back in. They told me that they won't cover the cost of labor. I tried to reason with them to have them issue me a partial refund or share the cost of repair for the engine so I could keep it. They refused and said that it is my problem, not theirs. This is very painful and indeed, I have learnt my lessons. Please, do not make the same mistake I made. It will cost you. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND DOING BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE.

    All of our engines are sold with a no labor warranty. In a warranty situation we will send for the engine to be picked up and will ship out a replacement engine. We cover the shipping cost on our end. We just do not cover the cost of labor. This is stated as item #1 of our limited warranty.

    1) Purchaser agrees that EngineWorld is not responsible for any cost of labor, parts, towing, installation, dismantling, reinstallation, transportation or freight claim, car rental, loss of work/wages, and/or any other related costs.

    Please contact us by calling at ************ if you have any questions or would like to file a warranty claim and move forward with getting a replacement engine.
